Step 1 of 8 · Download the installer

  1. Step 1: Download the installer

    Go to the download page and click the big button called Download JARVIS for Windows. Or paste this web address into your browser:

    https://github.com/dhananjay09892/JARVIS/releases/latest/download/JARVIS-Setup.exe

    A file called JARVIS-Setup.exe is saved to your Downloads folder.

    TODO: Chrome or Edge download panel with JARVIS-Setup.exe.
  2. Step 2: Run the installer

    Open your Downloads folder and double-click JARVIS-Setup.exe. Or click the file in your browser's download list.

    Click “More info”

    TODO: SmartScreen box before clicking More info.

    Then click “Run anyway”

    TODO: SmartScreen box after clicking More info.

    JARVIS installs just for you, so Windows will not ask for an administrator password.

  3. Step 3: Click Next, Install, Finish

    The installer is a small window with buttons at the bottom. You only need to:

    • On the license screen, choose I accept the agreement and click Next.
    • Leave the install folder as it is, and click Next again.
    • Keep Create a desktop shortcut ticked. This makes JARVIS easy to find. Click Next.
    • Click Install and wait. JARVIS is a big program, so it can take a minute or two.
    • Leave Start JARVIS now ticked and click Finish. JARVIS opens by itself.
    TODO: Installer window: the Install and Finish screens.
  4. Step 4: Open JARVIS

    If JARVIS did not open by itself, find the JARVIS icon on your Desktop and double-click it. JARVIS opens in its own window, using Chrome or Edge behind the scenes. That is normal. It may take a few seconds the first time.

    TODO: Desktop with the JARVIS icon.
  5. Step 5: Sign in to Claude

    On first start, JARVIS shows a short welcome window. Under 1 · Claude Code, click Sign in. A Claude page opens in your browser. Log in there and allow access, then go back to JARVIS and click Check again. It should say Claude is ready. Click Next.

    JARVIS uses your own Claude login, so there is no key to copy. Usage is billed to your Claude account. Need an account first? See how to get Claude and sign in.

    The JARVIS welcome window, step 1, showing the Sign in and Check again buttons.

  6. Step 6: Add a voice key

    Want it now? Follow the voice key guide, paste the key, and click Save key. Otherwise click Skip. You can add it later under Settings. On the last screen, click Finish.

  7. Step 7: Allow the microphone

    Click INITIALISE on the JARVIS screen. JARVIS needs to hear you, so the window asks for permission: Use your microphone? Click Allow.

    TODO: Microphone permission pop-up.
  8. Step 8: Say “Hey Jarvis”

    Say “Hey Jarvis” out loud, then ask something. For example: “What can you do?” The circle on screen lights up while he listens, and he answers.

    TODO: JARVIS listening after “Hey Jarvis”.

It worked!
